Yes, in certain circumstances, a child can legally sue their parents. This typically involves cases of abuse, neglect, or financial exploitation. The child would need to have a legal guardian or representative to file the lawsuit on their behalf.

Can you sue for assault if the children were 12 and 13 or can you sue the parents of the offender?

The short answer is no - the long answer is yes, depending on the circumstances. If you sustained injuries, you can sue for punitive damages regardless of the child's age. Parents of the child cannot necessarily sue the parents unless they were negligent in the care or restraint of the child. For example, you cannot sue the parents of the child if they weren't present, however, you can sue the parents if they were present and did nothing to restrain the child from assaulting you.

Are parents legally responsible for a child who is 20 and moved out without going to school in New York?

Parents need to support their children in NY, until they reach the age of 21. However, there are exceptions: IF an 18 year old or older, leaves on his own, he/she cannot sue for support. IF there is a support order from another state, then that order is primary for that child. -Note: If you 18 year old gets arrested, and goes to prison, it is possible for NYS to sue you for child support if you are a NYS resident. IF your 18 year old gets pregnant, and leaves the home, then NYS can sue you for support (not that they will win, but they can sue). Etc.
